How to manage space without eso+?

You could create a guild and only give yourself access to the guild bank. You'll need 10 members I think to get the bank, so if you can find 9 willing friends to join that's another 500 spaces you can use.

Here's some advice based on how I manage without ESO+.

Firstly buy inventory and bank upgrades when you can. Yes they're expensive (especially bank upgrades later on), but if you're struggling for storage space the simplest solution is to buy more of it. Another option if you have spare character slots is to make a mule - a character whose only purpose is to hold items. Even with the basic 60 inventory slots that helps a lot.

Secondly and IMO most importantly think seriously about what you need to keep, and why. Don't keep things just because they might one day have a use - if you don't know what you'd do with it the chances are you'll just keep it in your bank or your inventory forever. For example I don't keep spare equipment - if the character who gets it can't use it then I sell it or my crafter deconstructs it. But at one point I had a mule whose inventory was full of nothing but treasure maps and potions I kept picking up and saving for 'later'. Eventually I gave all the maps to my main character and used them all in one go (with breaks to put stuff in the bank) and either gave the potions to a character who could use them or sold them to a merchant.

Equipment can either be sold directly or deconstructed for crafting materials, which can then be used or sold. If you do any crafting it's worth deconstructing it because you can get rarer materials that way, and you get crafting experience as well. Anything with a vendor value can be sold. Some stuff may be worth more when sold to players, but you'll need a guild with a trader to sell it.

Thirdly if you want to do crafting I recommend having a dedicated crafting character. I did it originally because then I only needed 1 copy of each motif and because he could stay in town and always be near the crafting stations but it really helps with storing materials too. He has about 150 materials in his inventory, and because he's never doing quests or anything it doesn't matter that he doesn't have much space for loot.

But also don't keep materials you don't actually need. If all your characters are above level 20 you don't need the first tier materials (iron, jute, rawhide etc.) so you can sell those.
